It will encourage the development of an understanding of the interactions between people, activities and places, and the way the environment can influence mood and behaviour. It will offer the opportunity to investigate the functional, expressive and social impact of new construction technology. You will build multidisciplinary skills in the likes of urban design, housing and office design, planning, building conservation, architectural heritage and community development.
